The world has ended, I’m with my buddies and I’ve got a pistol with infinite ammo, I’d say this was Left 4 Dead but something is a bit different. The zombies are little more hunched, a little more grey and a little less human. In fact, they’re not human at all.
Earthfall is a solo or multiplayer FPS that pits four remnants of a human town against some underwhelming aliens that are rampaging and at times swarming. It will not stand out from the other dozen games of its type but it is another reasonable choice that - at least - doesn't require lessons.
It's not every day that a cooperative first-person shooter hits the market. Does Earthfall have what it takes to scratch your co-op itch?
Earthfall has some great flashes of fun, but lacks the imagination and balance needed to sustain it for very long.
Earthfall: Alien Horde is a four-player co-op shooter where a ragtag bunch of survivors band together to fight back against an alien invasion in the year 2032.
Earthfall attempts to modernize the Left 4 Dead series, but fails due to the lousy gunplay, mediocre level design, and poor audio.

It takes its influence from games like Left 4 Dead, however when I saw the trailer I thought it could be something a bit more like Extinction from Call of Duty: Ghosts as you face off against different aliens, trying to escape the nightmare. Unfortunately, for as fun as Earthfall looks, it has a lot of faults that make it a lot less appealing to play.
The Left 4 Dead franchise was one of the defining reasons for the rise in popularity of co-operative multiplayer shooters during the previous generation, and looking back on things, it’s kind of crazy to think that neither instalment ever made its way onto the PlayStation 3. However, the genre has taken a bit of backseat in recent years, and with Valve refusing to release a third entry in any of its series, the baton is passed down to other creators in an attempt to emulate the experience. Developer Holospark is aiming to pick up those pieces with Earthfall, but can it replicate those fond mem...
Where Warhammer: Vermintide and its recent sequel at least looked to build upon the Left 4 Dead formula with their progression system and fantasy setting, Earthfall simply tries to exist by running around in the skin of Left 4 Dead, expecting different results with what can feel like a bare minimum
Players drop into dreary Pacific Northwest America as up to four different personalities in Holospark’s Earthfall, searching for salvation while fighting off hordes of an alien invasion. The co-op First-Person Shooter (FPS) leads through ten linear levels of extra-terrestrial carnage, innovative defence building, and… not much else.
